Like many of us, Saint Paul proclaimed Jesus as the Lord and faced many rejections, even from his own family. Join us as we reflect and pray in the places where the Apostle preached God’s merciful and healing love.
The rest is history, because God’s message never fails.
A friendly reminder that space is limited, and the priority deadline is coming soon.
What have past pilgrims said?
“Going on the St. Ignatius pilgrimage with Fr. Marty was an amazing experience because of just how knowledgeable Fr. Marty is. He brings with him a very fun and youthful spirit that helped me get in touch with my faith in an even deeper way. The intentionality poured into the experience to ensure that it was a spiritual pilgrimage, and not religious tourism was deeply appreciated. Fr. Marty made a pilgrimage booklet with leading questions for each leg of the journey and grounded us with guided meditations. It is a source for remembering the graces and encountering other graces I may have missed. 11/10 would recommend!” ~ N.L.
“It was a Pilgrimage that was grace-filled & spiritually fulfilling. I saw the Holy Sites I just used to see on You Tube or hear about from friends. The Masses Fr. Marty celebrated & the opportunities he gave each of us to state our Mass intentions mean a lot. All throughout the Pilgrimage, I felt that Jesus and Mary were with us, especially as we prayed the Rosary at Fatima & Lourdes.” ~ I.S.
“As a first-time participant on a pilgrimage, I had no expectations. I was surprised and overwhelmed with emotions. My favorite memory was visiting St. Peter’s Basilica and taking a picture of Pope Leo in his pope mobile. I also checked one off of my bucket list – seeing the grandeur and immense architectural feat of Basilica of the Sagrada Familia in Barcelona.” ~ R.T.
“The experience was especially meaningful because it was centered around Christ. We visited many beautiful churches and Marian sites, all of which were enriched by Fr. Marty’s guidance through prayer, theology, and reflection. His humility, patience, and genuine love for his pilgrims made such a lasting impact on me. Thanks to his guidance, my faith and knowledge of Christ have grown tremendously. We were given time to individually experience sacred moments at each of the religious sites we visited, allowing for personal prayer and reflection. At the end of each day, we gathered together for dinner to hear the stories that inspired others to embark on the pilgrimage and learn how their faith had shaped their lives. Those conversations were just as impactful as the places we visited. The friendships I formed during the pilgrimage I will cherish for a lifetime. I would wholeheartedly encourage anyone to experience an eye-opening journey like the one I had. It was one of the best decisions I have ever made and has transformed my heart to desire a deeper relationship with God.” ~ B.P.
